1-on-1 attention for your best bud!
Pet care experience
Hello! I'm happiest when I get to take a walk, hike, or just spend time with a furry friend. I routinely housesit for animals of all types and walk dogs for Rover clients, friends, and acquaintances. I have experience with many breeds including Retrievers, Labs, Golden Doodles, Shepherd mix, American Staffordshire Terrier, Corgi, Swiss Mountain dog, Bully Breeds, Spaniels, Chihuahua, Yorkshire Terrier, Newfoundland, etc., and (of course) large and small mutts. I'm happy to give your dog alone time or take them out to be social if they love the dog park. I'd love to meet your dog and make sure they get the quality attention we all know they deserve, but sometimes it's hard to do it on our own! I am fully vaccinated and boosted. I maintain COVID-consciousness, and I ask all my clients to share in the responsibility of taking all necessary precautions, including masks, social distancing, hand-washing, and wiping surfaces as necessary. Thanks for stopping by!
Reviews
Kate took wonderful care of our older dog. He was happy and content when we returned, and had obviously received a bit of extra brushing, love, and exercise. We'd definitely use her again.
Kate is great! Would definitely have her watch our sweet cat again…
Kate took wonderful care of my elderly cat, Nacho, while I was away. She was attentive and ensured Nacho was comfortable and well-fed. Kate provided regular updates, and I could tell Nacho was in good hands. I highly recommend Kate for anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter.
kate did a great job! my cat is very shy but she made her feel comfortable and was very communicative.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for your pet by setting them up for success. That might mean avoiding situations where they are uncomfortable or reading their body language to know when it's time to play or time to chill. It's all about them when we are together!
Information Kate S. would like to know about your pet
- Potential conflicts with other dogs/animals or people. - Any tricks or treats that you use. - General info about the level of training. - Favorite activities and routes.
A typical day
Access to trails and neighborhoods. Visits to the dog park if appropriate. Fetch and off leash time if preferred. Time for couch/home companionship is okay too!
